Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

When we show up, we win.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

T R E 4 5 O N

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

Right Talk

Just got off the phone for Bill and Jeff’s radio show, which you can find here. It was a good time, and I had forgotten how much fun radio could be. I used to be a DJ back in the day, but that was years ago.

You can listen here, and I am on from about 10 after the hour until 45 after the hour. They keep changing the actual link, so just go to Right Talk and look for the Citizen Journalist.

*** Update ***

Reviews:

I’m a moron and should play “Hide and Go fuck myself.” Direct and to the point. (For the record, we don’t hate each other)

More positve here. “I was pleasantly surprised in the first segment with the good interview of John Cole.” Kinda makes me feel like George Bush after his first debate in 2000- the bar was set so low, I pleasantly surprised some people.

More positive here from Richard Bennett, who by nature is a grumpy bastard (and he loves his hai food). Of course, we generally see eye to eye on most everything.

Lots of comments here.

More here.

    I think you did real well. The age-old conflict between conservatives and libertarians in the Republican Party has reared its head again, and we need to whip the conservatives into line before it’s too late. You’ve been doing some fine whipping lately.

    When you play, just count to ten before looking. Don’t want you counting to eleven and disappointing yourself.

    The temperature dropped to 40, so I have socks on. Counting to eleven is impossible right now.

    I thought you did great, John. I called in just to save a life.

    I had to chuckle when you had to ask who you were talking to, Jeff or Bill.
